We are delighted to announce Hyde Park Developments as our first official partner in Egypt.

Hyde Park Developments provide world-class building and landscape designs including Hyde Park, New Cairo which is the largest park in Cairo. They become our official real estate partner in Egypt.

Our popularity in Egypt is one of the key contributor factors to our market-leading position in Africa, a hugely important market for the club. Our agreement with Hyde Park will further strengthen this leading presence in Africa. It will also help drive engagement with our fans in Egypt and support Hyde Park Developments’ marketing strategy across two real estate developments: New Cairo and Coast82.

We will co-host quarterly training camps and ‘coach the coaches’ programmes at each of these developments, Arsenal Legends will visit Cairo and first-team players will be involved in creating content to promote the developments.

In addition, Arsenal fans in Egypt and Hyde Park Developments’ residents will be offered a range of club-related benefits, including opportunities to win signed merchandise and replica shirts.

“Arsenal has fantastic support in Egypt where we have our second largest Facebook following of more than 2.5 million. We look forward to working with Hyde Park Developments to help them fulfil their business goals and for us to engage further with our passionate supporters in Egypt.”

Hyde Park Developments chief executive officer Amin Serag said: “In our endeavour to develop with value, Hyde Park Developments collaborates with best-in-class operating partners from across the globe. From architects to designers, consultants and contractors, each and every one of our partners shares our vision of creating exceptional, fully integrated communities that inspire people and enrich their quality of life.

“Since football is by far the most loved sport in the country, it is only natural that one of largest Arsenal’s fan bases has developed over here. We are planning to directly reach out to those followers and engage in common activities for the benefit of both brands.

“Partnering with Arsenal will allow us not only to enhance our brand perception through association with a globally recognised and respected brand, but also to cater to our living community’s lifestyles at Hyde Park, the New Cairo and Cairo overall.”
